I must also go with Vince Guaraldi. Classic for folks my age.
However, December by George Winston is also one of my seasonal favorites. And I've somehow just gotten to love the song "It Snowed (Last Night)" by Meaghan Smith, which was on an iTunes holiday sampler a couple years ago. So upbeat and cheery about snow, it could only have been sung by a Canuck.

We usually put on the Vienna Boy's Choir, or some german Christmas music from the 1950's and 1960's. It's a 32 year family tradition that we gather 'round the tree and sing "Stille Nacht". In German. OK, my wife and I sing it in German, the kids mumble along. We adopted almost all of my wife's family's Christmas traditions. Except I don't hit the Slivovits as hard as her dad usually did. Or complain about the food.

Can’t recommend this as classic Christmas music, and I enjoy a nostalgic trek by listening to at least one lot-time radio program. Here you can find “The Great Gildersleeve” episodes.
“Leroooooyyyy!”
